A formula and method for monitoring individual metabolic response and for generating predictive medical metrics

ABSTRACT

Provided is a formula and method for monitoring individual metabolic response that involve calculation of the lag/latency time (LT) for the peak levels of measured a variety of glucose values by HATR-FTIR (horizontally attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared) spectroscopy and the LT for the peak level of capillary blood glucose (CBG), with subsequent calculation of the LT changes between them. Obtained meaningful time-dependent and dose-dependent glucose values and their LT changes characterize glycemic variability (GV) in a qualified subject, that can be used to predict the patient&#39;s risk of hyperglycemia, to stage Type II diabetes and, in general, to be considered as a new metrics of assessing the quality of metabolic control.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates generally to monitoring metabolic response in a qualified subject, that comprises the step of consecutive performance of a plurality of measurements and further calculations of glucose levels, obtained by HATR-FTIR (horizontally attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared) spectroscopy. More particularly, the invention further relates to a formula for calculating the lag/latency time (LT) changes between measured in capillary blood the peak glucose level and by HATR-FTIR spectroscopy the peak levels of glucose values after achieved response in test subjects' from the ingestion of quantified amount of pure glucose and post-prandially, allowing to assess stability of metabolic control in healthy, prediabetic and diabetic subjects. Furthermore, qualitative and quantitative interpretation of glycemic variability (GV) by using a formula for calculation of the LT changes, based on a method of simultaneous assessment of 5 glucose-specific values by HATR-FTIR spectroscopy, helps to generate parameters, their characteristics, patterns and, thus, to establish suitable metrics for GV in the clinical practice.

DESCRIPTION OF THE RELATED ART

There are numerous published metrics to quantify different aspects of GV, but still there is no method of GV that is accepted in the clinical practice of diabetes care.

Developing a new set of metrics to evaluate normal, as well as clinically relevant high and low interstitial glucose levels might open for clinicians a new way in the interpretation of the activity of glucose metabolism for diagnosis, treatment and management of the patients with diabetes mellitus and carbohydrate metabolism disorders.

The technique of using ATR-FTIR spectroscopy has been long known for non-invasive glucose measurement, but through oral mucosa. The drawbacks of such measurements included glucose contamination of the measurement site by food and a highly variable rate of saliva.

Attempts have been made to demonstrate a proof of HATR-FTIR spectroscopy technique to detect, characterize and verify interstitial origin of glucose-specific signals at about 1030, 1041, 1080, 1118 and 1153 cm⁻¹ in the skin of healthy, prediabetic and diabetic subjects during OGTT (Oral Glucose Tolerance Test) and post-prandially, randomly and on mornings, i.e. fasting measurements.

Carbohydrate intolerance is one of the major criteria for a diagnosis of diabetes mellitus. OGTT employs ingested carbohydrate in a predetermined form and an amount to quantify a test subject's response to a resulting glucose challenge. However, this test is only concerned with the peak blood level of glucose, but not with the rate of change in glucose levels or the amount of time it takes for glucose levels to fluctuate from a high point to a lower point. p The medical significance of blood glucose fluctuations, i.e. frequency and magnitude, has been a controversial topic and the subject of extensive research, proving that GV can be used to describe a general risk of hyperglycemia over long periods of time, or when focused on events of short duration, such as meals or overnight.

Since glucose on the surface of the skin and within the stratum corneum has been considered as a source for extraneous glucose contamination during testing of invasive glucose monitoring devices, there was not found any direct method for in vivo glucose molecule(s) characterization and monitoring directly on healthy, prediabetes and diabetes subjects.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

An object of the present invention is to provide the user with in vivo method for monitoring individual metabolic response and a formula for qualitative and quantitative characterization of GV, in order to further recognize patterns from the patients data for establishing predictive clinical metrics.

Specifically, the invented method is based on a formula for calculating the LT changes between the LT measured for the peak of CBG and the LT for the peaks of epidermally measured interstitial glucose levels by HATR-FTIR spectroscopy on healthy, prediabetic and diabetic subjects under OGTT with different doses (low, medium, high) and post-prandially, applicable for staging Type 2 diabetes and assessing diabetes control, including estimation of intra-day and intra-week risks, as well a general risk of hyperglycemia. More, the invented formula can be further applied for screening of disorders of glucose metabolism, such as impaired glucose tolerance and diabetes mellitus by means of evaluation of the time required for glucose to diffuse from the capillary to the living skin tissue. In addition, the invented formula can be also served for individual calibration of obtained glucose profiles by HATR-FTIR spectroscopy in a dynamic time-dependent manner in a qualified subject.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENT

As described further herein, in vivo glucose spectral measurements from the skin surface of the inner wrists of measured subjects have been performed on a commercially available FT-IR spectrometer (Shimadzu IRPrestige—21/8400S, Japan), that measures the absorbance spectra in the 700-4000 cm⁻¹ region at a resolution of 4 cm⁻¹, using 20 frames of accumulation to collect interferogram. Non-invasive glucose monitoring is achieved by tight contact of the measured site with a specially designed flat-plated prism with a mounted ATR crystal for the PIKE Technologies Horizontal accessory (ATR-8200 HA). This horizontal accessory is of a trapezoid shape with carefully chosen dimensions by a manufacturer (80×10×4 cm), in order to maximize S/N ratio in the measured spectra.

A portable glucosemeter (SKK GluTestS, Sanwa Chemical Institute, Nagoya, Japan) has been used for CBG determinations in mg/dL.

Noninvasive spectroscopic interstitial glucose monitor to an individual necessitates a calibration. Generating such a calibration requires reference CBG values that are uncorrelated to sampling factors. The invented formula provides a method to calibrate dynamic measurements of interstitial glucose values in vivo by HATR-FTIR spectroscopy, based on referenced CBG values, that are described in FIG. 1.

A test subject's CBG values are controlled or manipulated through the oral ingestion of carbohydrate, i.e. meals, and/or through oral consumption of dissolved in water pure glucose at different determined doses (f.e. 5 g, 20 g, 75 g) in such a way that the changes of the targeted glucose profiles of FIGS. 1-4 are reproduced by the subject's own glucose profiles. Thus, since the subject's CBG is under active control, the influence of other sampling factors are eliminated.

Steps of the invented formula and method:

-   -   performing reference CBG measurements at pre-determined         intervals prior to spectral acquisition by HATR-FTIR         spectroscopy     -   gathering in vivo HATR-FTIR spectra from the forearm of a tested         subject at predetermined intervals in the 700-4000 cm⁻¹ region         with further spectra normalization to amide I, at about 1650         cm⁻¹, always after a background scan collection by HATR-FTIR         spectroscopy     -   multiple baseline correction of the 1000-1180 cm⁻¹ region with         assignment of glucose-specific peaks at about 1030 cm⁻¹, 1041         cm⁻¹, 1118 cm⁻¹ and 1153 cm⁻¹, where the peaks at about 1030         cm⁻¹ and 1041 cm⁻¹ are always mentioned together     -   subject's forearm repositioning after each measured spectrum for         avoidance of hydration effect     -   manipulating a subject's capillary blood glucose levels in order         to obtain meaningful time-dependent LT's and their changes by         subject himself/herself under OGTT with different doses (5 g, 20         g, 75 g), post-prandially, or under any other screening         metabolic test     -   manipulating a subject's glucose values by HATR-FTIR such those         produce meaningful time-dependent changes in the levels of CBG         and in the levels of glucose values at about 1030, 1041, 1118         and 1153 cm⁻¹ by subject himself/herself under OGTT with         different doses (5 g, 20 g, 75 g), post-prandially, or under any         other screening metabolic test     -   calculation of the LT changes between the estimated LT for the         peak of CBG and the estimated LT for the peaks of each glucose         value at about 1030, 1041, 1118 and 1153 cm⁻¹ measured by         HATR-FTIR spectroscopy

The invention utilizes the targeted glucose profiles by HATR-FTIR spectroscopy schematically presented in FIG. 1. “0”- point is pre-prandial, i.e. fasting, and/or before OGTT.

The CBG values and the spectral measurements furnish a data set upon which a calculation of the LT changes is made by using Equation 1, and which a calibration is also based in a qualified subject.

Equation 1 utilizes only parameters described in FIG. 1:

LT changes=LT(CBG peak level)−LT(HATR-FTIR peak level(s)(1030/1041/1080/1118/1153 cm⁻¹)

The various aspects of the invention are described in greater detail below.

Examples of inducing levels fluctuations/shifts in the subject's CBG values and epidermal glucose values by HATR-FTIR, in order to obtain meaningful time-dependent and dose-dependent glucose values, their LT's for maximum peaks and their LT changes towards monitored characterization of GV in a qualified subject, with or without hyperglycemia, stable or unstable, that can be used to predict the patient's risk of hyperglycemia, to stage Type II diabetes and, in general, to be considered as a new metrics of assessing the quality of metabolic control, are presented in Tables 1-5 and in FIGS. 2-6.
